SUMMARY
Folders show up to 4 preview icons to symbolize their content. But they exclude
symbolic links to pictures.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. create two new subfolders in folder overview: "copy" and "link"
2. drag'N'drop a picture on "copy" and select "copy" from the popup menu
3. drag'N'drop a picture on "link" and select "link" from the popup menu
4. refresh the view by F5
OBSERVED RESULT
Icon for "copy" features a preview of the picture inside.
Icon for "link" stays blank, even thought the picture inside can be shown fine
via the link.
EXPECTED RESULT
The "link" folder shall also show a preview icon.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
If a folder contains other folders (or link to other folders), this is not
really easy to show. I suggest, not showing folders inside folders. Instead
subfolders can be indicated in the tree-sidebar as of bug 448132.
What is really strange is, showing e.g. a text file on the icon, to indicate,
that the folder is not empty, but clicking inside, the text file is filtered by
Gwenview, as it does not know how to display a text file. I would recommend
having a consistent notion of what is shown on the icon and what is inside, if
you open the folder.
